Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Leigh, Jack and I are making a Mad Dash 2011 from our home to Land's End then John O'Groats and back home again - in just 5 days! That's over 1,800 miles!
We are collecting for two charities. Acorns Children's Hospice is this page and Cancer Research UK is on our other page www.justgiving.com/Justin-Malpass0 so feel free to support your favourite, or both should you be so inclined.
It's a road trip and we are funding all expenses ourselves so every penny you donate (plus your tax if applicable) goes to the charities. I have started booking hotels now so that makes it even more real.
Day one we will be staying in Taunton having already visiting Land's End. Day two we will sprint up to the far side of Glasgow. Day three the difficult journey across the Scottish Highlands past Loch Ness to John O'Groats. Day four travel back down through Scotland to Edinburgh. Finally, day five a marathon drive home.
It will be during Whitsun week holiday this year (30 May - 3 June). So not long away really.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now.
